LOS ANGELES - When European researchers set out to use gene sequencing to catalog the hundreds of species of microbes in the human gut, they expected to find variation between individuals and perhaps even between geographic groups - but they assumed that there would be a large number of different possible combinations of bacteria. Instead, said bioinformatics expert Peer Bork of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg, Germany, gut bacteria seem to cluster into just three distinct and stable combinations that show up across populations from a variety of backgrounds - a discovery that could have implications for medicine in the future.
[...] in between botany walks and improving his skill in identifying plants and animals, he began applying for industrial internships that would give him access to molecular research. Hack home, he found the same approach at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg and the Institute of Molecular Pathology in Vienna, where he was involved in research before taking over the molecular biology department of Boehringer Ingelheim Austria in 1993, a center for basic tumor research, also situated in Vienna.

In the late 1990s, biochemist Venkatraman "Venki" Ramakrishnan left the University of Utah, despite a sizable pay cut, to pursue molecular biology at a prestigious Cambridge laboratory. On Wednesday, the sacrifice paid off when the former U. professor was awarded the 2009 Nobel Prize in chemistry, science's top honor. I have to say that I am deeply indebted to all of the brilliant associates, students and post-doctors who worked in my lab, as science is a highly collaborative enterprise," Ramakrishnan told the Indian news agency NDTV. "The (Medical Research Council) Laboratory of Molecular Biology and the University of Utah supported this work, and the collegiate atmosphere there made it all possible.
